Look what happens when Delfino gets time and the ball.

I think if he gets about 15 minutes per game, he’ll start actually developing. He needs some plays run for him. I hope Delfino doesnt get traded. And I said he arent going to go anywhere b/c he need someone of the bench to score besides McDyess. I cant see Murray being able to be that consistent. Also his fg% was so bad b/c he needs more than like 3/4 shots per game. Also he wasn’t really complaining. He just said he wants to be able to play more. Other players say they want out. He said he just wants to play.

Delfino has done nothing except whine and complain. He can not hit a shot to save his life. look up the FG%. his defense is passable. he can drive, but he can’t finish.

joe d is attempting to drive up his value. Delfino will never play another minute in Detroit Pistons blue.

to suggest that we aren’t going anywhere without Delfino is laughable.

davidson hates players who complain to the media. delfino does it every year. he’s done. delfinished.

fo sho. Delfino is great and can make shots. Murray is a chucker. Delfino takes his time and has the ability to dish, which isnt that common in a sg. Thats what I like is if hes having a tough time with the J he’ll probably attack the basket or get someone else some points. If we trade him I’ll be pissed. We need him on our team if we are going to go anywhere this year.

I know this does not work, salary wise. Could you imagine if Artest becomes a Piston? We would have him here, playing against the bulls and that guy they whored out, I forget his name but he could not shoot free throws. I’m thinking there would have been some money to be made on that bet, especially right after the palace incident. Artest as a Piston, and I don’t care what you think of the guy…he fits defensively. Wallace as a Bull. We could trade Rip, delfino, acker for Artest. this gives Tay the chance to break out, like I think he will do this year anyway. Ok, it’s bullshit…but….it would be nice…

I’d trade Flip Murray instead of Carlos Delfino in a sign-and-trade package with the Hawks. Unless Joe Dumars is just speaking highly of Delfino to attract more teams, I think the Pistons really want to keep him. Delfino has excellent defense, is quick and attack the rim. Flip Murray seems bland to me. On the other hand, who wants Flip and really an unproven Delfino?

I don’t know…but Delfino must stay put.

Tom: we traded Dupree to the Timberwolves at the start of last season for a future second-round pick. He was in the final year of his contract, though, so we signed him this year as an unrestricted free agent. The only thing he cost the Pistons is the minimum contract they gave him.

What did we have to give up for Dupree? We just traded him, so he was still under contract with the wolves? How does that work?
